"Now that we've got our images down, we're going to start playing around with our text. And this is where it really starts to get fun as far as the designing goes. First we're going to start off with making things bold. And there are two ways to make something bold. And if we look. I'm going to go ahead and bold this sum line, would you like to go to Expert Village? And so, one of the first ways is a tag. I'm going to separate this out so you can really see what I'm doing. So go ahead and type b in brackets. And after that, the lines that you want bold, you type /b to close off it. And the b stands for bold. And if you save it. Come over here and hit refresh. All of a sudden that text is bold. And the other way to do it that works pretty much the same, is instead of typing b, you type the word strong. And that makes the text strong. Then save that. And refresh it. And it looks exactly the same. I usually use b, because it's easier. Less letters to type."
